A league official who knows the actual numbers attending the two games note that: i. The actual attendance in Atlanta is within 10%10 \% of Anita's estimate. ii. Bob's estimate is within 10%10 \% of the actual attendance in Boston. To the nearest 1,000, the largest possible difference between the numbers attending the two games is (A) 10000(B) 11000(C) 20000(D) 21000(E) 22000\mathrm{(A) \ 10000 } \mathrm{(B) \ 11000 } \mathrm{(C) \ 20000 } \mathrm{(D) \ 21000 } \mathrm{(E) \ 22000 }
